Why do I need this bond?

South Carolina private detective bonds ensure that principals (private detectives) perform the duties of said office according to state laws—specifically, South Carolina Code of Laws Title 40, Chapter 18.

This bond protects the state and other individuals from financial loss if the investigator fails to adhere to the law and the terms of the surety bond contract.

What’s the fine print?

If the principal remains compliant with all regulations and performs all business faithfully and honestly, South Carolina private detective surety bonds remain effective and must be renewed each year. In the event that any provisions or conditions stated in the bond are disobeyed, the bond becomes null and void following a claim.
